I finished Coraline by Neil Gaiman. It was so good! I think it's even better than The Graveyard Book. Apparently there's a movie? I will definately be looking out for when it's released here in Aust.

I just Finished Ada by Vladimir Nabakov. Some of ideas about the nature of time might have gone over my head but it did give me some food for thought.

"One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" by Alexander Solzhenitsyn. It was a great story, but the French translation was awful.

I finished Eline Vere by Louis Couperus a couple of days ago. The beginning was really slow, but after I while I got into the story.

I finished reading Jane Austen's Letters. It was hard to follow the plot.
